Thanks, I'll call around to next.

I'm not sure how close it is to the spec. but, it's an improvment to what I had before. The work was completed at an alignment shop that works on many BMW's. You can call and talk to Greg or ask for the technician who performed the work. I'm sure they will be gald to answer any questions you have. (Boykin Automotive 805 495-3218 on west coast). The tire shop I went to first did'nt know what to do and could not even find the camber adjustment. Cost me about 75$, but well worth it.


Turk, is the after number close to what the spec should be? I have a 19" on my 4.4i and yes the car seems to be too sensitive to the "crown" of the road, it just wander left and right too eagerly.
By just looking at the rear end I can tell the camber is just too much(negative).
By the way, did you get it aligned at the dealer or tire shop? I just want to make sure whoever is going to do it has the copy of the specs.
Thanks.
